This guy is extremely DANGEROUS...JD Vance!!
And they call themselves religious...not the religion I grew up with.

There are now an alarming number of similarities in the rhetoric about threats, opponents, goals, ideology and propaganda from periods of dark history. As a German with a knowledge of history, this sounds very familiar to me. I would appeal to our American friends to be vigilant.

Thank you Rachel! You brought it up. You have a huge platform of Mainstream viewers. and you brought up Curtis Yarvin.

[priscillasswanberg]

Thank you Rachel for exposing this vile human being.

5:15 It's amazing how people forget our grandfathers fought an entire war to defeat a dictator because dictators are inherently bad.

When something is broken, you dont tear it down, you fix it!!! These people are absolutely NUTS.

I feel sorry for JD Vance‘s wife and children. How can he go home and act like a husband and father to people that he is vilifying every time he speaks. Disgusting

[deniseh]

OMG, thanks for providing this information!

[toddstropicals]

Well I've got news for JD Vance, he is not going to tell me how to live my life. If he wants authoritarian government he can move to North Korea or Moscow.
How about we delete JD Vance from politics?

[blairtinkle]

Rachel always spot on. This needs to go viral and be understood.

[noville]

What a nut job JD Vance is . Too bad they won't call out his lies on the debate, cause he will be lying constantly .

[marilynhoward]

I feel like I’m going to vomit. What is wrong with the U.S. ?

[itsalolsquid]

I hope the "need to get over their dictator phobia" is clipped and played nonstop in the next months.

[niclewis]

That 47% of the Country don't care about this is truly scary.

[kls]

I keep seeing t shirts stating "hillbillies don't need an elegy" and America doesn't need jd vance.

[sschwacke]

Thank you Rachel! We need more of this from you!

[christophermartin]

The tumor being our democratic republic— so much for _We the People_

[harryrabbit]

"our leaders right now are so corrupt and so vile..." Well, if that isn't projection, I don't know what is.

[sylviahoffman]

Excellent exposè. Well done as usual, Rachel. ❤

[JanetB-jq]

Finally someone is talk about the Vance/Yarvin connection. Yarvin is completely nuts. Dangerous stuff.
